For centuries, the commercial life
Kyiv focused on the hem. In the same city, where in ancient times
Torzhysche flourished. The most successful auction for buyers
occurred at the hem at the beginning of spring. These tenders were called Contracts
fairs. The first fair was held in 1797. The area (modern
Kontraktova), among Tolkuchoho market in 1828 was erected
Contract building that became the center of the fair.

During the fair during the month (the first of February until the first of March)
all vacancies grew to marketplace where you can
find anything. Sales of that time could not rely on modern
transport and communication, so that in winter it was possible to bring most products
and generally get to Kyiv, but because of direct trade on Contract
fair trade agreements drawn up for the future - mainly to buy
large quantities of bread and sugar. Such agreements were called contracts, which gave a
Fair name and was his calling card. Number of participants rahuvalasya
thousands. It came from all over Europe - from Austria, Prussia, Britain, Italy,
Switzerland, of Denmark and Greece. Therefore contract Fairs brought considerable income
Kiev, as all visitors had to settle, feed and entertain.

With the development of transport gradually increased the duration of Contract
fairs. Since the late 19 century. need for seasonal fairs fell,
agreement drawn up during the year in the house got a Kontractova
Trading Exchange. Fairs traditionally held some time in the spring, but
former scale was no more.
